Oreo, Cadbury, Eden, Cheez Whiz, Tang, and Toblerone: As Filipinos, it's safe to say you've snacked on some of these offerings from Mondelez Philippines. As the brand continues its commitment to promote mindful snacking, Mondelez looks back and expresses gratitude to everyone who has been with them for over six decades of partnership, including their home, Parañaque City, since July 31, 1963.
On August 7, Mondelez Philippines hosted a Thanksgiving dinner at Sequioa Hotel in Paranaque City, attended by the brand's executives and Paranaque government officials, including Mayor Eric Olivarez and Vice Mayor Joan Villafuerte. “We extend our gratitude to the city of Parañaque for being our home all these many years,” said Mondelez Philippines Vice President Aleli Arcilla. “We have benefitted from the support that the city has provided us, and in turn we have done our utmost to be a responsible corporate citizen.”
Apart from being one of the city's top taxpayers for many years, a part of the company’s sixty-year-old heritage is Mondelez Philippines' various advocacies. In recent years, the company, along with the Parañaque City government, has launched several advocacy campaigns focusing on health, such as the company's 11-year-long Joy Schools feeding program that has provided meals to thousands of the city’s students. Additionally, the company donated over 2,000 doses of Moderna COVID-19 vaccines to the Parañaque Local Government Unit (LGU) during the pandemic. Mondelez Philippines also collaborated with the city health office to provide a learning session for barangay health workers, highlighting its mindful snacking advocacy.
